Tasting Notes

From our Chief Tea Taster
Submit
Aroma
Marked by notes of nectarines, unripe fruit, sweet green and wet wood
Appearance
Deep Gold
Taste
The liquor is brisk, full-bodied, and well-rounded. Delicate notes of nectarines are noticeable at the start, which then give way to a core filled with sweet, fruity flavors. Soft vegetal tones, reminiscent of sweet greens and subtle hints of young wood, emerge around the edges, adding depth and variety to the cup. Sublime notes of candied white pear can be detected in the aftertaste.

Christmas Cheer with Margaret's Hope

My FAVOURITE tea purchased during the Black Friday sales. I could not help myself and bought two kilos!! It's great that the tea is packed in 100g vacuum sealed packs - always fresh and now I have many stocking fillers ready for Christmas! Being summer here in Melbourne, I love steeping the tea in cold water in a big pot, leaving it overnight in the fridge and delicious refreshing cold tea the next day! Full of all those special Margaret's Hope flavours

Mellow and calming

It has a beautiful sweet fragrance when steeped and had the distinct flavour of black tea. But I think due to the fact that this is the first flush, it is not at all bitter and has a subtle but fulfilling taste. I would say it is for those people who want try the basic black tea flavour without its harsh body.

Gift

This was a gift for my son-in-law who is just beginning his journey into the world of tea. I gave him several sample packs and he was thrilled! I also email him links to Teabox that shows how to brew and many facts about tea.
